Mother-of-pearl and freshwater pearls

Mother-of-pearl and freshwater pearls are two natural materials that have been used for thousands of years in the creation of jewellery. They have always fascinated and seduced those who wear them and those who look at them. We never get tired of their irregular shapes, their countless colours, their iridescent reflections, their finesse... Each freshwater pearl and mother-of-pearl is unique, which is why each piece of jewellery you make will be unique.

Long neglected, mother-of-pearl and freshwater pearls are more trendy than ever, they are seen everywhere in fashion shows as well as in the streets. They are also ideal throughout the seasons and for all occasions. Whether you are classic, coquettish, sophisticated, chic and elegant or even bohemian, they fit in with all your everyday looks. Combined with golden components, they will bring a touch of glamour to your evening outfits.

Used both as gemstones, they are a symbol of femininity and softness. In a bracelet, a necklace, earrings, a ring or even in an accessory, freshwater pearls and mother-of-pearl sublimate those who wear them. Day or night, you will not be able to do without them.

But do you know what a freshwater pearl is? It is a real cultured pearl that comes from an ancestral pearl tradition from China. And as their name indicates, they are raised in shells from freshwater rivers and lakes. They are essentially made of mother-of-pearl, which is the closest thing they have to natural pearls.
Mother-of-pearl is the inner lining of certain shells.

On our site, find our freshwater pearls and mother-of-pearl components. You will be able to realize many DIY costume jewels according to your style and your desires.
